VLAN Management Tab - GVRP
GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is specifically provided for automatic distribution of VLAN membership
information among VLAN-aware bridges. GVRP allows VLAN-aware bridges to automatically learn VLANs to
bridge ports mapping, without having to individually configure each bridge and register VLAN membership.
The Global System LAG information displays the same field information as the ports, but represents the LAG GVRP
information.
The GVRP screen is divided into two areas, GVRP and GVRP Table. The field definitions for both areas are the
same.
